“Doing ordinary things in extraordinary ways.”
This was something that my guest from this weeks youtube interview said and I think it’s extremely fitting for the work she is doing in Africa for its fashion and textile industry.
Mariama Carama of Mariama Fashion Production shares insights on running a business in Africa working with 1000s of African artisans and creating textiles using traditional techniques. See youtube video here.

This weeks video links to our instagram page where all month I have highlighted a series focused on African textiles, showcasing that this is so much more than the wax print offering many of us know, maybe love or even maybe hate.
In this weeks Fashion Africa Voices interview I share with you HOW MARIAMA of MARIAMA FASHION PRODUCTION inspired by the matriarchs of her family who worked in textiles and handmade products, began to work with woman tie dyers in Kindia a region of Guinea. Following her passion, Mariama became the first Guinean to showcase the work of Guinean women tie-dyers from Kindia in the international market to START AN AFRICAN PRODUCTION AND TEXTILES BUSINESS.
That’s right… go get ready to have your mind expanded over the possibilities!
If you are debating the feasibility of actually starting up yourself in Africa then Mariama’s story will truly inspire you AND give you very valid insights to what to expect and how to have success.
